Part(a)To Determine:
The distance the block would go up an inclined plane when given an initial velocity.

Answer to Problem 56P
Solution:
The distance the block goes up the block is 2.8 m.
Explanation of Solution
A block is given an initial speed slides up a distance s along the length of the incline which is at an angle and comes to rest after traveling a distance s up the plane.
The free body diagram for the block is shown in the diagram below.
The weight mg of the block acts vertically downwards. The normal force acts perpendicular to the incline. The weight mg is resolved into two components, parallel and perpendicular to the incline.
The block experiences a retarding force due to the component of weight , as it moves up and is decelerated at the rate a.

By Newton’s second law,
……(2)
From equations (1)and (2),
……(3)
Given:
The initial speed of the block
The angle of the incline
The speed of the block at the distance s is
Formula used:
Calculation:
The distance the block travels up the incline before coming to rest is calculated by substituting the given values of v,, and for g in the equation and solve for s.
Part(b)To Determine:
The time taken by the block to return to the starting point.

Answer to Problem 56P
Solution:
The time taken by the block to return to the starting point is 2.4 s.
Explanation of Solution
To determine the distance traveled up the plane using the equation of motion,
Use equation (3)in the above equation.
…….(4)
To determine the time taken by the block to return to the starting point, use the equation of motion
Use equation (3)in the above equation.
……(5)
Given:
The initial speed of the block
The angle of the incline
The speed of the block at the distance s is
Formula used:
Calculation:
When the block reaches the starting point, its net displacement snet is zero. Use 0 for s and the given values of v, , and for g in the equation to solve for t.
The equation has two roots, and
Since refers to the time at which the block is set into motion, the time taken to reach the starting point is 2.4 s (correct to 2 sf).

- For each of the actions depicted, determine the direction (right, left, or zero) of the current induced to flow through the resistor in the circuit containing the secondary coil. The coils are wrapped around a plastic core. Immediately after the switch is closed, as shown in the figure, (Figure 1) in which direction does the current flow through the resistor? If the switch is then opened, as shown in the figure, in which direction does the current flow through the resistor?

A person is setting up a small clean room space to carry out an outreach activity to educate high school students about patterning using photolithography. They obtained a positive photoresist, a used spin coater, a high energy light lamp for exposure and ordered a plastic transparency mask with a pattern on it to reduce cost. Upon trying this set up multiple times they find that the full resist gets developed, and they are unable to transfer the pattern onto the resist. Help them troubleshoot and find out why pattern of transfer has not been successful. 5. You are given a composite…arrow_forward
